I apologize for being gone so long. That 'flu is nasty stuff.  And of course, there was Christmas and all the to-do about that, family and friends dropping by and such.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.  Holiday for those who don't celebrate Christmas.

I'm just curious if we're going to continue with the RP. =)

I would like to know, too. I've been getting into it, so if it dies now I'll be very sad. Sad

The Geist MD Frequently Asked Questions Post!


So, where you been, buuuuuuddy?

Computer problems, and many efforts to fix them, have left me disillusioned with our geopolitical climate, and the state of healthcare in this country. In addition, I have been doing my best to continue a revolution in Portugal to free them from the tyranny of natural gas emmission such as oxygen and man-made methane deposits.

DA ARE-PEE!!!!severalones. Is it dead?!

No. This Ghost is still one step ahead of the hounds.

So are you back? For good?

For the forseeable future, yes.

Plans for the RP? Are you still running the show? Is this going to be a common occurence?

In a word, yes. About the last one, no. There were other things that needed doing, I was sitting on my hands waiting for others, others were waiting for me, it's all very sordid and blame doesn't belong on any one person, self serving as that may sound.

However! I am still psyched for this jioggy, and I still have the same ideas as before, but there are a few things I will need from the ladies and gent involved, if they're still interested.

-I need a PM, or a post here in this thread if you'd prefer, saying yes, I am still interested.

-I need the following people to dual/triple post, {IE, post with one another in a big session}

--The Effervescent Miz Ducky, The Lovely Southern Belle, & The Irrefutable Lupin Lover

--The Unending Ghost MD & The Indespensible Angel Idol Linda

-I also need to iron out not just the introduction but integration of Hokori. Last I heard, Miz and Hokori were planning on this, but I need at least an update if that's still the case presuming both parties are able and interested.

-To streamline new players integration, I'm going to be building a timeline of key events with links to their respective post. This is as much for organization's sake as it is for helping us old nuts get jonesed about the work again, which, frankly, is probably one of the reasons this has floundered so hardcore.

Sounds nice and all, but you've been gone a while, and my heart just hasn't been in it. I'm busy, I've lost the love of the characters and the heart of the story. So what happens to my character?

Those are all understandable feelings. A lost passion for the work is usually the death knell for the work itself, and if your heart ain't in it or other matters are too pressing, then no one would blame you dropping out.

There are two options for anyone whose opting out:

One - We drop all your posts from the main storyline. This means that, while your work stays on the boards viewable to all, it is essentially redacted and retconned into magically not having happened.

Two
- You write them out of the story. This might require a little more effort on the part of the authoress/author than they're willing to do on a project so... sleepy.

Three - Another player brainstorms with you, talks about the plans you had in mind, and you hand them over. As some characters are deeply personal for their authors, this is obviously not going to be an option everyone's comfortable with.

Four - If you can't be bothered, which again is understandable {how long have I been gone?},  with permission I'll just take over and see things through till the end.

I'm still in this thing! Thick and thin! True and blue! Resilient and... something that rhymes with that! So, whadda I do?

Well, right now, unfortunately, we wait. I need to accomplish at least a message from everyone and a post from Zeni and I, or FujiAddyJiggy, before this can progress. If you want to move things along at your own pace, or if there's a plot point you had in mind that you think could punch us in the gut to get things moving, toss me a PM.

I'm out, I hate you, this RP, these people, and everything.

Well, just don't pull a Banished Prince. They're bannished. Again.

I am so glad you didn't die. ;_;

I am still totally 100 percent interested, though Miz and I aren't working on introducing Abeni because she's busy doin' her own thing--I was pretty sure you and I left off *thinking about* (never got confirmation) introducing her alongside Issabella as a temporary villain. ^_^ But if you can find a way to pop her into the plotline, I'll be happily waiting.

I am most definitely still in, though my availability will be different now that I'm finally employed. When I get a solid grip on when I'll be around I'll let you guys know, but I try to check the forums every day so if you need me for anything, chat, rp stuffs, or just to say I smell funny, shoot me a pm.

Glad to have you back Dr. Geist!

Excellent! Feel free to toss me a PM with some ideas and we can work something out. My memory's pretty fuzzy about it, so excuse me if I'm kinda like WARGH WHAT TIME IS IT WHERE IS THIS.

Good to know, madame, I will add you to the list of interested parties. Good to have another oldbie still on board.

I'm interested but at the moment am wading through doctor's appointments, disability insurance issues and trying to get SSDI so I've been and shall be tied up in regards to time.  Now that I know you're back to finagle things, I'll check back more often.

Whenever a new post or two appears in the IC thread, I will toss mine in there. Regardless of what I decide in terms of my future involvement in the RP, there's still at least one post, on my end, which must be put out in the interests of wrapping up Goemon's side-plot.

Alright. I have a couple of ideas/suggestions to make which, while they may or may not help getting the roleplay off its feet again, I thought would be worth throwing out there. Feel free to agree or disagree, it's all good as long as we're talking.

The first is the suggestion that perhaps big, collaborative posts should be temporarily dropped in favour of 'quicker', one-at-a-time posts between characters. It might not look as clean as character interactions all lumped together in one post, but I considered this because I imagine it has been and it is quite hard to grab hold of the people one needs at the same time. While I can't speak for anyone else, I figure that after a dry spell in posts, it's harder to get back into the groove with a collaborative post given how complex and lengthy they are, so some 'warming up' with smaller, separate posts might ease folk back in. People then would be able to post in response to someone as it suits them (and ping-ponging posts like that) rather than trying to coordinate something with another, which is tricky given our busy, fairly incompatible schedules. Maybe this wouldn't actually change much in the end (who knows?,) but in any case, it can't hurt to bring it up.

I was wondering if you, or someone could create an actual list that we can see here, in the OOC thread, that keeps track of the current involvement status of all roleplayers, for the sake of more clearly keeping tabs on just this particular situation. I'd be curious myself to get a sense of how things are going.

Hope I'm not being too forward with the suggestions; forgive me if I am. I just hope to see life again, soon, and it doesn't help that viewing some of the most recent special has gotten me a little bit excited. If anything, I'd like to see where the rest of you take this plot.

Anyway, I'm available for a chit-chat if a sort of get-together were to be arranged.

*nod, nod* I agree that shorter, singular posts may be a good way to at least ease back into the groove of things, if not help people who are at the moment experiencing a busy life. It's hard to get together with people, I'm sure, at this moment in time.  Smiley

IG: Regarding multiposts between several users, I agree it might be best overall, and encourage anyone with the freetime for a quick paragraph or so to knock themselves out as such. That said, I'm gonna try to hammer something out with Hokori hopefully tonight, but definitely sometime this week. Even barring that, I'll toss out some new material just to get something out in the ether.

Regarding timeline, I'll update the first post later today accordingly for an RP timeline and a player-status thingy to keep track.

As a note of some importance, Angel Idol Linda's notified me she won't be returning to the RP as Zenigata, and if there is anyone who had their eye on the detective, now would be a prime time to mention as such. I'm giving first dibs to anyone else, but I've got an interest there too, so if there isn't a wanting party, then he won't go to waste. That said, do speak up if you're jonesing to give Pops a whirl.

I would like to since I enjoyed playing Tottsan before, but I'm not sure if it would be a good idea. I'm already balancing between the Cheungs, Gan and Seth. Not to mention interactions between Zenigata and the latter character would be too one-sided.
